1.B. 細(xì)節(jié)題。 利用備選項(xiàng)中的細(xì)節(jié)信息詞(A:family, B: education, C: dreams, D: working/work)作為答案線索, 在文章中查找答案相關(guān)句:
(第3段)This seems a great idea.Think of(考慮, 想象) how(怎樣,何等)much more (更多的)time we could spend chasing(追逐) our dreams, spending time with our loved(熱愛的) ones,watching(注視,監(jiān)視) our families grow(成長) and have families of their own(他們自己的).
(第4段)“Longer life would give us a chance(機(jī)會) to recover(恢復(fù), 使改過) from our mistakes(錯(cuò)誤) and promote(促進(jìn), 提升) long term(長期的) thinking(思考, 思想),”says Dr Gregory Stock of the University of California School of Public Health(公共衛(wèi)生). “It would also raise(提高, 飼養(yǎng), 募集) productivity(生產(chǎn)力) by adding to(增加) the year we can work(working的家族詞).”
答案相關(guān)句出現(xiàn)在第3,4段里, 第一個(gè)答案相關(guān)句說“想想我們將會延長多少時(shí)間來追逐我們的夢想,與愛人廝守,看著我們的孩子成長并組成他們自己的家庭”, 因此A和C都不是答案。 第2個(gè)答案相關(guān)句說“它(長壽)還延長了人的工作時(shí)間,從而使生產(chǎn)力得到提高”, 因此D也不是答案, 答案是B。
2.A. 首先關(guān)注段落第6段。 備選項(xiàng)中都出現(xiàn)與婚姻相關(guān)的詞語, 因此首先關(guān)注該段中涉及到婚姻的句子。
This seems a great idea.(第1題答案相關(guān)句 )Think of how much more time we could spend chasing our dreams, spending time with our loved ones,watching our families grow and have families of their own.
“Longer life would give us a chance to recover from our mistakes and promote long term thinking,”says Dr Gregory Stock of the University of California School of Public Health. (第1題答案相關(guān)句 ) “It would also raise productivity by adding to the year we can work.”
(第6段) It would certainly be a very different society.People are already finding it more difficult(困難的) to stay(繼續(xù)) married(已婚的).Divorce (與婚姻相關(guān)的詞匯)rates (離婚率)are rising(上升).What would to marriage in a society where people lived for 140 years? And what would happen to family life if nine or 10 generations of the same family were all alive at the same time?
答案相關(guān)句說“人們發(fā)現(xiàn)很難保持一段婚姻。 離婚率正在上升。”該句暗示美國人目前的婚姻關(guān)系已經(jīng)十分脆弱。
3.B. 細(xì)節(jié)題。利用問題句中的細(xì)節(jié)信息結(jié)構(gòu)(working life)及備選項(xiàng)中的細(xì)節(jié)信息詞共同作為答案線索(A: employer, employee; B: money, employer, employee; C: job market; D: top positions), 在文章中查找答案相關(guān)句:
It would certainly be a very different society.(第2題答案相關(guān)句)People are already finding it more difficult to stay married.Divorce rates are rising.What would to marriage in a society where people lived for 140 years? And what would happen to family life if nine or 10 generations of the same family were all alive at the same time?
Research into ageing may enable women to remain fertile for longer. And that raises the prospect of having 100-year-old parents,or brothers and sisters born 50 years apart1 .We think of an elder sibling as someone who can protect us and offer help and advice.That would be hard to do if that sibling came from a completely different generation.
Working life would also be affected(被影響),especially(尤其) if the retirement age(退休年齡) was lifted(舉起, 提升).More people would stay in work for longer. That would give us the benefits of age-skill,wisdom and good judgment .
On the other hand(另一方面),more people working for longer(更長久地) would create (造成)greater competition (競爭)for jobs. It would make it more difficult for younger people to find a job.Top posts(郵件, 職位) (top positions的近義結(jié)構(gòu))would be dominated by (被...控制)the same few individuals(個(gè)人, 個(gè)人的) , making career progress(職業(yè)發(fā)展) more difficult(更困難).And how easily would a 25-year-old employee be able to (能夠)communicate with (與...交流)a 125-year-old boss(employer的近義詞)?
依據(jù)答案相關(guān)句判斷, 文章中的作者沒有提到雇傭者需要更多的錢來支付員工的工資。
4. C。 細(xì)節(jié)題。利用問題句中涉及修飾詞的結(jié)構(gòu)(an important feature)及備選項(xiàng)中出現(xiàn)的細(xì)節(jié)信息詞或修飾詞(A:the young; B: wise, energetic; C: curiosity; D: change )共同作為答案線索, 在文章中查找答案相關(guān)句:

It would make it more difficult for younger people to find a job.Top posts would be dominated by the same few individuals,making career progress more difficult.And how easily would a 25-year-old employee be able to communicate with a 125-year-old boss?
(第10段) Young people would be a smaller part of a society in which people lived to 140 .It may be that such(這樣的) a society(社會) would place less importance on (不太注重)guiding(引導(dǎo)) and educating(選項(xiàng)A中的核心詞) young people,and more on making life comfortable(舒服的) for the old(老年人).
And society(社會) would feel very different(不同的) if more(更多) of its members(成員) were older. There would be more wisdom(wise的家族詞匯),but less energy(energetic的家族詞匯). Young people like to move about.old people like to sit still. Young people tend to act without thinking.old people tend to think without acting.Young people are curious and like to experience different things.Old people are less enthusiastic about(對...熱心) change. In fact,they are less enthusiastic about everything.
根據(jù)10,11 段里的答案相關(guān)句判斷C是答案。
5.C. 細(xì)節(jié)題。 利用問題句中的特征詞(Callahan)和細(xì)節(jié)信息詞(anti-ageing technology)作為答案線索, 在文章中查找答案相關(guān)句:
Young people would be a smaller part of a society in which people lived to 140 .(第4題答案相關(guān)句)It may be that such a society would place less importance on guiding and educating young people,and more on making life comfortable for the old.

The effect(影響) of anti-ageing technology (抗衰老技術(shù))is deeper than (比...更深) we might think.But as(隨著) the science(科學(xué)) advances(前進(jìn)),we need to think about (考慮)these changes(變化) now.
“If this could ever(的確) happen(發(fā)生, 出現(xiàn)),then we’d better(最好) ask(問) what kind of society(社會) we want to get(得到),”says Daniel Callahan.“We had better (最好)not go anywhere(任何地方) near it until(直到) we have figure (解決)those problems(問題) out.”
答案相關(guān)句說“Callahan認(rèn)為在搞清楚長壽社會給我們帶來哪些問題之前,最好不要急著搞抗衰老的技術(shù)”。 由此可見他對抗衰老技術(shù)的發(fā)展是持一種保留的態(tài)度。
